Publisher's summary
First in a new Regency romance series featuring noble gentlemen and the ladies who help them love again.
Widower Benjamin Romilly, earl of Furness, lives a melancholy life. The loss of his wife in childbirth four years before has robbed him of all happiness. He can barely look at his son, who resembles his mother so strongly and is a constant reminder of her loss.
But Jean Saunders, a relative of Benjamin's late wife, erupts into the grief-stricken household to restore order and take Benjamin's son away. From all Jean has heard, she assumes he won't care - but she doesn't know how wrong she is.
As they come together to raise Geoffrey right, their budding attraction is undeniable. And when a nosy neighbor gets in their way, Jean has to face her darkest fears before all is made right.

They were kind, gracious, and shared the beauty of Ravenwood, their grand country estate, by hosting lavish parties for the entire countryside. But at 22, he discovered his whole world was an elaborate illusion, and when Devlin publicly called his family to account for it, he was exiled as a traitor. So be it. He enlisted in the fight against Napoleon and didn't look back for six years. But now his father is dead, the Ware family is broken, and as the heir he is being called home.

Oliver might be dreadfully annoying, but Primrose doesn't want him dead. She's going to make certain he survives his inheritance - and the only way to do that is to help him catch the murderer!

Yet, Davina MacCallum's reasons for searching out the handsome Duke of Brentworth have nothing to do with marriage. Scottish lands were unfairly confiscated from her family by the Crown and given to his. A reasonable man with vast holdings can surely part with one trivial estate, especially when Davina intends to put it to good use. Brentworth, however, is as difficult to persuade as he is to resist.

Though with her nose for a story, Clara wonders if his desire for justice is sincere - along with his incredibly unnerving intention to be her husband. If her weak-kneed response to his kiss is any indication, falling for Adam clearly comes with a cost. But who knew courting danger could be such exhilarating fun?

I like my historical romance novels to have a little bit more steam romance and passion and there really none in this book. The other thing that was really annoying about this book was little jeffrey. he is such a brat that it just turned me off of the story.

This story is lacking substance
The only thing saving this audiobook is Rosalyn Landor. The “heroine” is completely annoying, as well as the dragging out of her backstory.

this excellent story has three main characters, hero, heroine and a 5 year old very smart but very mischievous little boy. the story was well written and well paced. I had never read this author before, but she is now on my top 10 list. the narrator as usual did a great job acting out the story and bringing all its characters to life.

Lovely story, great characters
This book has it all. It has romance, entertaining and likeable characters (especially Geoffrey and Tom). and lighthearted repartee. Roz Landor is great with lighthearted repartee, and she brought life to Ms. Ashford's delightful characters. I've listened to this book may times but this is my first review.....it's now in my favories

Fantastic story and narration
I can't say enough about Rosalyn Landor. I even mention her in reviews where she is not the narrator. This is another great performance. She does so much with the voice of the little boy, that I can feel everything he is going through just by the way that RL changes the tone .
The story is great and shows how 2 mature adults with communication and patience can come together. I believed that this was about learning to love someone, and not just 2 beautiful people lusting after each other. It has compassion and understanding on the part of all the characters. The reader can tell that all of them are coming together to become a family ...very touching and powerful.

The lord is home ....
This is book 1 in a new series. Each main character is connected through grief and brought together by the Earl of Macklin, the uncle of the main character (also an Earl) of this tale, who hoped to assist each young lord with his journey to overcome this sad state.
This story is well written. There are several surprises, twists and turns. One of my favourite characters is Geoffrey, the Earl's son. He is tenacious, creative yet sweet. His interest and observation of vocabulary creates a kindred spirit to this reader. I would recommend this book as well as the entire series.

Disappointed
Setting: Somerset, England
Genre: historical romance
Unsure of the date ~ Regency era or thereabouts.
Miss Jean Saunders erupts into the life of Benjamin Romily, the Earl of Furness, demanding to take his 5 year old son away. Benjamin has spent the past 5 years sitting in his study, staring at the portrait of his wife who died in childbirth. The boy, Geoffrey, is wild and unmanageable and it is difficult to keep nursery staff. Unbeknownst to Benjamin (at least until Jean arrives) Geoffrey’s current caregiver is a drifter named Tom. Jean’s arrival makes Benjamin see that he has been neglecting his son, and that relationship develops at the same time as the connection between the protagonists.
I thought this book would never end. Seriously. It could have been edited down by at least a couple of hours by taking out all the empty rumination and long-winded descriptions. Stylistically, this book was more than disappointing. The narrative was confused by there being multiple points of view. I’m not talking just the alternating h/H you usually find in romance novels. Aside from the 2 protagonists, there was also the POV of Benjamin’s uncle, the Earl of Macklin (spelling?), Macklin’s valet, Jean’s lady’s maid, and the kid. That many points of view isn’t just sloppy, it’s lazy work. Surely limiting the POVs would have provided a tighter, more enjoyable story.
The premise of this story is interesting, but the plot itself is thin, and the characters are one dimensional. It isn’t a good sign when the secondary characters are more interesting than the protagonists.
The fact that this was narrated by Rosalyn Landor is probably the only reason I kept listening. That, and I spent a credit on it.
